Problem 005-cb
For the cabled structure in Fig. 005(FR-CB), member ABC which is assumed to be rigid is pinned at A and held in equilibrium by cable CD. For this structure, determine the reaction at A and the tension in the cable.

Problem 004-mm | Method of Members
Problem 004-mm
For the structure shown in Fig. FR-004(MM), members AD, DC, and ABC are assumed to be solid rigid members; member ED is a cable. For this structure, determine the reaction at A, the tension on cable ED, and the force in member DC.

Problem 001-mm
The structure shown in Fig F-001(MM) is pinned together at points A, B, and C and held in equilibrium by the cable CD. A load of 12,000 lb is acting at the midpoint of member AB, and a load of 8000 lb is applied at point C. Determine the reaction at A, the internal force in member BC, and the tension on cable CD.

Analysis of Structures
There are many kinds of structure. This section will limit to those that are pin-connected. Two types of pin-connected structures will be covered here; pin-connected trusses and pin-connected frames. In the actual structure, the joints may be welded, riveted, or bolted to a gusset plate at the joint. However as long as the center-line of the member coincide at the joint, the assumption of a pinned joint maybe used.

Problem 347 | Equilibrium of Non-Concurrent Force System
Problem 347
Repeat Problem 346 if the cable pulls the boom AB into a position at which it is inclined at 30° above the horizontal. The loads remain vertical.

Problem 346 | Equilibrium of Non-Concurrent Force System
Problem 346
A boom AB is supported in a horizontal position by a hinge A and a cable which runs from C over a small pulley at D as shown in Fig. P-346. Compute the tension T in the cable and the horizontal and vertical components of the reaction at A. Neglect the size of the pulley at D.

Problem 308 | Equilibrium of Concurrent Force System
Problem 308
The cable and boom shown in Fig. P-308 support a load of 600 lb. Determine the tensile force T in the cable and the compressive for C in the boom.
